About the author

Julianna Franchini (Also known by her online alias MarquiseCubey) was born and raised near the rocky shores of Vancouver, British Columbia, and she has been sewing for as long as she can remember. Having started out as a kid making clothes for her dolls and eventually herself, she soon discovered the world of cosplay as a teen and was inspired to continue with a formal education in costuming for film and theatre, helping to infuse her cosplays with a tangible love of garment history and storytelling. When she’s not making or wearing costumes, Julianna can be found playing bass guitar, hanging out with her cat Spaghetti, discussing the complex inner lives of video game characters, and sharing her knowledge and love of costuming with fellow cosplayers in the community!

- Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2022I’m a veteran cosplayer who’s been in the hobby for over 20 years so you know when I say that Cosplay Fabric FX is an essential and revolutionary book, I am speaking from experience! Most of the knowledge about how to distress fabric is locked behind books decades out of print, specific university courses, or occasionally dangerous internet posts with varying degrees of quality. This book covers at least the basics of everything you could possibly need to know to distress your costumes and make them look more realistic irl and on camera. Like I mentioned earlier, I’ve been cosplaying for two decades, and I still learned plenty! Buy this for yourself if you have even a passing interest in cosplay. Buy this for any cosplayers in your life. If I could give seven stars to this, I would.
